It seems they always get slammed a stupid move quickly after they have been signed because the player can't keep up the production that justified the pay increase.
Clark and Jones were a big reason we won the SB in 19 and now their deals are cement boots on a team that certainly won't win it again this year. Clark will be gone but still 12 mil in dead cap and Jones we are stuck with for the next year and then a 7 mil dead cap if he's gone.
Only the QB is worth over 20 mil per season.

Clark and Jones are both playing really, really well.
